There\u2019s still a lot to aim for, and that\u2019s what keeps me going.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \">Arne Slot&#8217;s side secured the title with a<a class=\"TextLink_text-link__dBSS0 TextLink_enabled__dJF3l\" href=\"https:\/\/www.liverpoolecho.co.uk\/all-about\/liverpool-fc\" target=\"_self\" aria-label=\"\" tabindex=\"0\" rel=\"noopener\"> 5-1 win against Tottenham on April 27<\/a>, and Gravenberch admits the scenes he witnessed that day, both before and after the game, will stay with him forever.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \">\u201cIt was honestly something really special, a season I\u2019ll never forget,\u201d he said. \u201cThe scenes on the bus as we approached <a class=\"TextLink_text-link__dBSS0 TextLink_enabled__dJF3l\" href=\"https:\/\/www.liverpoolecho.co.uk\/all-about\/liverpool-fc\" target=\"_self\" aria-label=\"\" tabindex=\"0\" rel=\"noopener\">Anfield <\/a>before the Spurs game, that afternoon we won the league, will stay with me forever.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \">\u201cThe passion on the fans\u2019 faces, the red flares, the noise, the songs, just seeing what it meant to them, it gave me goosebumps.

We\u2019re hungry for more.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \">And the 23-year-old, speaking in an interview with Numero Netherlands, admits a certain mindset is required to play for a club like <a class=\"TextLink_text-link__dBSS0 TextLink_enabled__dJF3l\" href=\"https:\/\/www.liverpoolecho.co.uk\/all-about\/liverpool-fc\" target=\"_self\" aria-label=\"\" tabindex=\"0\" rel=\"noopener\">Liverpool<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \">\u201cI\u2019ve been lucky to play for three historic clubs \u2013 Ajax, Bayern Munich, and <a class=\"TextLink_text-link__dBSS0 TextLink_enabled__dJF3l\" href=\"https:\/\/www.liverpoolecho.co.uk\/all-about\/liverpool-fc\" target=\"_self\" aria-label=\"\" tabindex=\"0\" rel=\"noopener\">Liverpool<\/a> \u2013 and honestly, each one is the biggest in its country,\u201c he said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \">\u201cIt\u2019s been a real privilege. These are clubs and cities where football runs deep. The fans live for it. They expect everything from you, and when you put on that shirt, you feel the weight of that. It\u2019s something I never take for granted.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \">\u201cTo be honest, I think they\u2019re more alike than people realise. Big clubs demand a certain mentality, that winning mindset. There\u2019s a culture around them, built over the years, that\u2019s all about success.
